017-042-keidar – GW researchers developed a novel
micro-sized cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) device in order to target
glioblastoma brain tumors. CAP is made when gas is ionized at
room temperature. CAP induces apoptosis in cancer cells without harming normal
cells. GW already commercialized a CAP device to be used in tumor surgeries to
remove potential tumor cells left behind in the area around the removed... Read More

016-027-keidar – For successful cancer therapy, the most important aspect is selective eradication of cancer cells without damaging healthy cells. Cancer cells and normal cells have different thresholds for tolerance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) before cell death (apoptosis) is induced. Previously, GW researchers invented a cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) therapy device... Read More
